I'm feeling these weird thud-like sensations in my chest that are really making me uneasy. I've already had a Holter monitor, echo, ECG, and TMT done, all of which came back normal. What's my next step to address this issue?

Thud sounds in the chest can be concerning, even if your heart tests have come back normal. It's important to rule out any underlying issues. In this case, you can try taking a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol (25-50mg) once daily. Beta-blockers can help reduce the sensation of thud sounds in the chest by slowing down the heart rate and reducing its workload. However, it's important to consult with your healthcare provider before starting any new medication.

I'm wondering about taking my Metzok 50 tablet at a new time. I usually take it at 9 am, but I'm considering switching to 3 am. Is that okay to do?

Its generally fine to adjust the time you take Metzok 50 (metoprolol) by a few hours, but its best to consult your healthcare provider before making a permanent change.

I'm really concerned because my ECG showed an abnormal T wave, and now they've told me to see a cardiologist. I'm not sure how serious this is. Should I be worried, and what should my next steps be?

In ECG, an abnormal T wave can indicate various heart conditions. It is important to follow up with a cardiologist for further evaluation and management. Depending on the underlying cause, treatment may include medications such as beta-blockers. Lifestyle modifications such as regular exercise, healthy diet, and stress management are also important. Regular follow-up with the cardiologist is recommended to monitor your heart health.
